CAUSES

As mentioned above an allergy is a reaction of the immune system to an environmental substance. When a child suffering from allergy comes into contact with these substances, known as an allergen — either by touching, breathing, eating, or having it injected, it acts as a triggering agent, which excites the immune system to release histamines and other chemicals as a reaction. These chemicals irritate the body and cause symptoms such as runny nose, sneezing, itching, and coughing etc
Allergens: The most common allergens are: dust, woolens, molds, pollens, animal dander, perfumes, various foods like shellfish, peanuts, eggs, milk, wheat etc.

HOMOEOPATHIC APPROACH

Some systems of medicine advocate Anti-histamines to cure the all forms of allergies. Homoeopathy believes that such drugs merely suppress or palliate the allergy and rarely cure it.
Homoeopathy is a science that does not depend only on the diagnosis of the diseases. For most of the other therapeutic sciences treatment depends only on diagnosis. In Homeopathy equal importance is given to the patient as well as his suffering. This means when other sciences aim at treating Disease in Man, Homoeopathic science at the very inception, has been devised to treat the Man in disease. In simple terms Homeopathy aims to treat the inner man that is his immune system thereby treating the root cause of his disease, which is a weak immune system. The system of homoeopathy works on the principle of taking every patient as a different entity with different medicine based on the symptoms therefore, a doctor should be consulted before taking medicines.
